Imogen Cunningham

Imogens images show how light can be used to turn objects abstract.

I like this image because the light in this image makes the lilies look completely different, they also look like their floating.

        

               

   I like this image because the lighting has  

              made the  rose look like its plastic. the lighting

         also makes the hard wood surface abstract itself

          and looks like flowing water.

                                                        

                                                                                                       

                                                        

       

  

    The lighting in this image makes the lilies look like

    their flames. lilies are the flower of death so I also 

     think that Imogen could have been trying to abstract 

         this image to make the lilies sort of look like a spirit in some sense.   

Maholy Nagi

 I like this image of Maholy Nagi because of how he has used light to create an abstract shadow from the object, this is something I want to achieve through this project as well. 

This image is interesting because the simple lighting highlights the areas of importance and it also contrasts against the dark plain background. I also think that the lighting helps direct then viewers eyes down the image.

 I like this image because the lighting makes the object look like its moving, but the reflection grounds the object. I also like how the lighting almost gives this still object living characteristics.

This image is interesting because of how the lighting emphasises the movement of the object. The lighting also makes the centre of the object look still in contrast with the outside part that looks like its moving creating an abstract form
